Are these Razor Blades legit?

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Oakley-Razor-Blades-matte-black-frame-black-lens/223077801812?hash=item33f0791f54%3Ag%3ALgQAAOSwUO5bS-nJ&_nkw=oakley+blade&_dmd=1&_sacat=0&_from=R40&rt=nc&_oac=1


I've been looking for one of the 2010 re-release Oakley razor blades that have the black frame and white writing on the stems but I'm unsure as these seem to have a different lens on them.

Looks like someone swapped the parts around. The lens is the later '30 years of sports'/Heritage edition but Grey only came on the Seafoam, and the black frame came with Fire. Probably someone bought both, swapped and is selling the less desirable result of the spare parts.

That makes sense but the Heritage collection (i.e. 2014 re-release) did not have any models with the black frame and white Oakley writing on the stems, the black frame with white Oakley writing was only part of the limited 2010 re-release as far as I know (or on vintage models of course).

Ah right. It also has the logo and some SKU text on the inside. I don't have any of the 2010 as they weren't really widely released, but that lens is definitely the 2014.

Yup, which rules it out from being vintage.

So it must be either a 2010 re-release frame with a 2014 re-release lens or a chinese fake. Anybody know how to spot if its a fake?

He hasn't sent me any close up photos of the markings or packaging despite me asking, he also seems to keep re-listing many of the glasses over and over (which is unusual for such limited production models). Its safe to say I won't be ordering from him as the chances of them being counterfeit is very high.
